Title: Exhausts / uk.
Post by: Lucian on May 06, 2008, 01:10:29 PM
For all you uk riders that might be struggling to find exhausts over here (i was!), MTC have quoted me £270 for a full system in stainless. Look them up!

You could get up a group buy and ship them to the US and Australlia to pay for your exhaust.

If enough people were interested it would drastically reduce the price too because that price was based on fabricating 1-off link pipe and headers.
Ideas?
Would they generate interest in the US?

It could if the price was around $300+ shipping US.

I dont think shipping will be cheap on a exhaust , say 100 bucks ,

and there isnt a way to get a Exhaust here for 100 pounds , *200 bucks*

I suppose 1 of our U.S members might know a bike dealer or sum1 who might be able to negotiate being a US supplier. That would reduce shipping but would have middleman mark-up.
